So I just finished my first watch through of Sopranos.. and I don’t know what to think

It was a brilliant show. Perfect pace.. great characters.
Then the final scene went to black and I don’t know what the frick to think
Part of me is pissed off. Part of me understands the idea of leaving the end result up to interpretation
But I’m still pissed off.. but I don’t regret watching it.
After watching The Wire and then Sopranos over the last 6 months, I don’t know how I’m going to top those two shows

Watching it in its original run, we had been having shitty weather and I was pretty sure my cable cut out.
I think it sits much better with me now (especially after a rewatch) then it did then. And I think Tony dying had to happen. He wasn’t going to survive that shite with New York. It was too much at that point.

Check out The Americans if you haven’t at this point. Extremely well written. Satisfying finale (maybe one of the best ones I’ve seen up there with Six Feet Under).

The ambiguity of the ending was perfect. It was a view from Tony's perspective of the paranoia he had to live with at all times and would for the rest of his life - however long it may have been ;) - after the war with NY.
The only part I never really got was the Meadow parking shite. The time it took her to park only matters if the whole family at the table got whacked, which would have been highly unusual.

I was expecting her to do a shite parking job and block in the person that would eventually shoot Tony

It was only briefly open for interpretation after it aired.
Tony was whacked.
The ending was actually well thought out and very clever.

Those may be the three best shows of all time.

Sopranos is solid 8.5/10 but not as special as people make it out to be when comparing to other shows.
Everyone says “you’d have to watch it when it originally came out” but that’s only the case because at the time it was the greatest show of all time and since then has been surpassed by Breaking Bad, The Wire, GOT, and BCS. They think it’s about the context of the time period but they’re really just admitting that it’s nostalgia boosting their rating.

FWIW, I enjoyed The Wire more
I think Sopranos and Breaking Bad are very close
I am haven’t finished BCS
GoT was god tier until it became toilet tier

The Americans is a top 5 show for me. I was a child of the 80s, so I’m biased, but it uses music better than just about any show ever.

The final scene is seen through Tony's eyes. Everything you see is from Tony's POV. When the screen goes to black, you're seeing what Tony sees.

You’re going to get a bunch of retarded revisionist BS about the ending being good from a bunch of people that were legit pissed when it first aired.
But yeah, the ending sucked.

The last season of the wire makes it #2 imo.
The last season of the Sopranos was fantastic

People bitch about the finale. I must have been the only one that spent seasons 4,5,and 6 wanting to know what happened to the damn Russian from the Pine Barrens episode.

What? not at all..
The point was she wouldve been sitting between Tony and the shooter obscuring his shot. His family was never going to get whacked.
Would meadow being in the way have stopped the hit altogether? almost certainly not, but tony would've seen it coming and no jump to black screen.

You don’t. Every now and then you find a show that comes close (breaking bad). Otherwise you just rewatch those two over the years. I’ve rewatched each at least 5 times.

I know we’ve beat this horse to death, but I don’t know how anyone could watch the final season, and mainly the lake house episode, and not know and accept that he got killed in the final scene.

My question has always been this: who had Tony whacked?
Was it Butch tying up loose ends from the war after selling out Phil to Jersey?
Was it the standing hit ordered by Phil before he died?
Was it Little Carmine playing the long game?

The Shield is another you should watch. I think it has one of the best endings of a series
